Carousel Selects Intelisys for Cloud and Carrier Services

The cloud evolution is the strongest driving force behind the blending of the telecom and IT industries. Recognizing this, Carousel Industries, a provider of virtualization solutions, recently selected Intelisys for cloud and carrier services.

Intelisys is a distributor of business communications services including voice, data, access, cable, collaboration, wireless and cloud. The company’s reputation for support and its forward-thinking approach around the cloud space made it a perfect choice for Carousel.

Officials said that with the help of this partnership, Carousel has gained access to more than 60 of the telecom industry’s cloud and network suppliers, as well as a residual commission model.

Formalized in December 2012, the partnership has already proven to be a great success for Carousel as the company in the very first quarter of 2013 has sold more than $1 million in annual revenue through Intelisys.

“The most valuable aspects of our partnership with Intelisys are the instant broadening of our product portfolio and the ability to take a more consultative approach with customers," said Tim Kennedy, vice president of carrier services for Carousel Industries, in a press statement.

With more than 1,000 employees, comprising 25 technicians, working from offices in 30 locations across country the firm has been successful in serving over 6,000 customers, including 35 of the Fortune 100.
